Martha Olmos

REALTOR®

ABR, GRI, CNE

Martha is originally from El Paso, Texas. Growing up she worked in her father's grocery store, restaurant and bakery where she learned the value of hard work and providing excellent customer service at a young age.

Before becoming involved in the real estate industry, Martha spent 17 years as a Flight Attendant during which time she mastered excellent communication skills with her colleagues and the public she served in flight. She knows her flying career gave her an education she would not have received in a classroom and is grateful for the experience of traveling around the world. She is sensitive, respectful and understanding of diverse cultures. She is also fluent in Spanish. It was during her tenure as a Flight Attendant that she moved to Austin in 1997. As do most Austinites, Martha appreciates the live music venues, active lifestyle and family atmosphere Austin provides.

In 2005, Martha obtained her Real Estate license. She has served the real estate industry as a REALTOR sharing her experience working with both buyers and sellers, allowing her to draw on her strengths and expertise in analyzing and strategizing to help her clients achieve their goals. She prides herself in providing every seller and buyer the knowledge that they have a loyal partner looking out for their best interest and is committed to serving her clients with the highest ethical standards and professionalism. She takes great pride in doing an excellent job and going above and beyond the call of duty. Her strong work ethic, honesty, positive and energetic attitude has allowed Martha to succeed in her professional life.

When not working, Martha enjoys spending quality time with her family. She is also active in her local church which she considers of significant importance in her life.

My wife and I were first time home buyers. We came from California and had six people in the household. We wanted a specific floor plan in a specific area near highly rated schools in a certain range of price. We planned to give up certain conditions if these conditions do not meet. However, Martha found houses and began to send us a list of homes three months before moving the date. Meanwhile, if we had questions, Martha answered thoroughly and promptly. My wife flew out to Texas to see the actual houses. We scheduled to see five homes per day for three days, and Martha helped us to get through it.

The home buying process is extremely stressful. If you ask about home buying to first time home buyers, you will, for sure, hear long and dramatic stories. I was so close to the point of throwing everything away and stopping the process a couple of times. There are many parties involved and a lot of papers to send out; the seller, listing agent, mortgage company, lender, and title company. Many things were going back and forth. And you need someone who represents you and works on behalf of you only. That was Martha for us.

She constantly communicated with the mortgage company and listing agent to make sure everything was going as planned. She also made things right that our mortgage company nearly blow up the process. And every time we were depressed because of all these processes, she encouraged us to get it through. Martha was our spear and shield. When I hired someone, I always ask them this question: will you work with this person again if you have a chance? My answer to this question on Martha is if I have enough money to buy 100 houses, she will be my agent 100 times. You will not regret working with her, contact Martha!

My wife and I used Martha Olmos with Realty Austin to purchase a home in the Austin area in October of 2017. We then used her again to sell the same home in April 2019 (moved around for work). I can't say enough nice things about Martha. Besides her being a fantastic human being, she did her job very well. She was very patient with us during the search and tailored her schedule around us when we came into town to look at houses (since we were out of state). When buying the house, she was consistently active with the seller to ensure all aspects of the deal were tracking. In the end, our purchase went smoothly and as planned. I couldn't have asked for more. When selling our home, Martha went through every part of the house with us to discuss how to make it show-ready. She helped us with staging and had our home advertised across a ton of mediums. We sold the house quickly which was very critical for us since we were relocating back out of state. Highly recommend Martha and Realty Austin.

We thank Martha Olmos for all of her help in finding our beautiful home. She was very informative about our VA loan and helped guide us throughout the whole process from the beginning to the end. We highly recommend Martha.

Based on one word-of-mouth recommendation, I asked Martha Olmos to represent me when looking for my first home in Austin, after living and renting here for over twenty years. When a house that looked like a good fit popped up on the market seemingly out of nowhere, Martha jumped on it without hesitation and lined up a walkthrough in no time at all. Her personal insight into the neighborhood, coupled with her research into the property, the seller, and even the seller’s Realtor was completely reassuring in Austin’s hyper-competitive market. We ended up going to contract a little after, and I am now typing up this review from the comfort of my own home. Martha’s a really good Realtor, but you don’t have to take my word for it, ask anyone she’s represented, and they’ll say the same thing.

We never had a Realtor as helpful and as knowledgeable as Martha. The daunting task of looking for another home was so much easier for us this time. She helps with every step of the way. To include keen eye finding discrepancy's during walk thru, answering never-ending questions about utilities, local regulations, etc. We found Martha very courteous, helpful, knowledgeable, and nice!

I first contacted Martha Olmos via email when my husband and I decided we wanted to move from Saint Louis, MO to the Austin area. Martha had helped our son and daughter-in-law purchase a home in Austin a few years earlier. Martha surpassed expectations from my very first contact. She replied to my email inquiry almost immediately and arranged a mutually agreeable time for a phone conversation. Martha is an excellent communicator, listening well, articulating clearly, and responding to emails, text messages, and phone calls within minutes.

Martha knows the Austin real estate market and neighborhoods. With the help of the Realty Austin website and home search tools, we narrowed our search to a few neighborhoods of interest. When we came into town, Martha showed us houses all over southwest Austin, out to Lakeway and Dripping Springs. Most importantly, when we found the home we wanted, Martha knew how to get the deal done. When we decided to make an offer on our house, the seller had received two competing offers the same morning. We had two hours to get our offer in, including proof of financing. Martha re-arranged her schedule and got it done for us! Then we faced a three-week closing date, which she coached us through, long distance, and got it done! In spite of all the pressure and stress of deadlines and a long-distance transaction, Martha was ALWAYS calm, focused, and clear in her communications with us. You have no idea what a valuable gift that is!

Even after closing, Martha has continued to respond instantly to emails, texts, and phone calls, and gone above and beyond to provide services and information that have made our home purchase and transition to a new city easy. She is both a lovely person AND a brilliant, hard-working agent. We love our new home and can't recommend Martha enough.

I worked with Martha Olmos to purchase my first home. Martha was wonderful, very attentive and responsive. I'll admit that I was hesitant to purchase a home because I didn't think I could do it. But Martha was persistent in following up with me, and it paid off because now I have a beautiful home. Martha was excellent throughout the process. I can't recommend Martha enough. Thanks, Martha!

Martha Olmos helped me with the purchase of my first home. She is absolutely wonderful and exceeded all of my expectations! I will recommend Martha to anyone and everyone who is buying a home in the Austin area.

Martha is awesome! We really enjoyed working with her. She made the process very easy and kept us on schedule, which is critical in this competitive market. We will definitely be referring Martha to others in the future.

We are transplants from Ohio to Austin. Upon arriving, we sought out agents to interview and immediately connected well with Martha. She outperformed our expectations in every way. She provided an extensive orientation to neighborhoods and the greater Austin area to assist in identifying our best options. Once we were in the mode of considering properties, she provided helpful information including properties she would not recommend for consideration once we visited. She was professional and informative during the offer and negotiation process as well as provided useful information on service contractors once our home was purchased. In addition, she is considerate and focused on meeting her customer needs. If you are in need of a true real estate professional, consider Martha. You won’t be disappointed.

Thank you, Realty Austin, for helping me out during the process; Martha did an excellent job during the process. Martha is the best, and she always answered my questions. She when above and beyond, and I will definitely recommend Martha and Realty Austin to those who are looking to buy or sell their home.

Martha is the only reason we currently own a house, and we are very thankful for that. Her care for her clients can only match her professionalism. She is always available to answer our questions and believe me as the first time home buyers; we had a lot. Martha is extremely resourceful and always can recommend a quality contractor for every project. Her knowledge about the law and restrictions in each region is simply amazing. I can testify that Martha truly cares about her clients and that human relationship is what helped us throughout the process as first time home buyers. Overall, Martha was the miracle we could only wish to happen to us. We are going to miss her.

The service Martha provided to my wife, and I was outstanding. When you're relocating from out of state, and don't have any family/friends in the area, you're very reliant on your real estate agent. Martha made sure to keep me in the know about the overall area, specific neighborhoods, what to look for, what to watch out for and more. Frequent communication and availability are critical to my work, and I expect the same when dealing with service providers in my personal life. Martha was always reachable and didn't need any reminders from me on actions to be taken to get us to a close. She certainly puts forward a positive image of Realty Austin, and I would recommend both Martha and the firm to anyone who was looking for real estate services. I hope to work with Martha again in the future.

Martha Olmos represented me in the sale of my home in Round Rock. Her attention to detail is impeccable. She personally took the time to look at every single room in my home and made suggestions on how to best optimize the space with the staging. She kept me on track with all the necessary steps I had to take to ensure a smooth sale of my home and it was accomplished without a hitch. Not only is Martha extremely professional and highly knowledgeable but her personality and friendliness are what has stood out the most in my experience with her. She will also be representing me in the purchase of my new home. I highly recommend Martha for all of your real estate needs.

Not only did Martha exceed our expectations she went above and beyond to assist us every step of the way. She kept us informed of what to expect and what was needed to get us through the process. She seems to be a very experienced individual. I wish to thank Realty Austin and especially Martha in helping us find our new home in the Round Rock area.

As a first time home buyer with 20% down payment, great credit history, and well earning income we were eager, naive and optimistic that everything would go smoothly in our home buying process. We found our dream home quick, too soon actually. It had almost everything that we were looking for. The negotiations were taken care of by our wonderful realtor Martha Olmos. The real trouble came from the local lenders. The request for repeated documentation pushed our closing date further. We were on the verge of losing the house twice as a result of the lender. If it wasn’t for Martha, we would not be sitting in our new house. During the stressful time with our lender, she made sure to check up on us every day, we were on close communication often speaking to her 3-4 times a day. When the sellers were ready to pull back the house, it was Martha who came to our rescue speaking to the seller’s agent. She was definitely working overtime for our sake. The personal attention and the help she gave us during those stressful times are truly heartwarming and greatly appreciated. We want to thank Martha from the bottom of our hearts for all the help and effort she had put in to ensure we would have a home. We would gladly recommend her to anyone who needs help to buy a home. Great service like hers is not easily found anywhere.

Vinodh and Deepa R.

Martha was spectacular through the entire home search, offer, buying, and closing process. She was extremely professional and knowledgeable and offered excellent advice throughout the process such that we felt she truly had our best interests at heart.

Evan and Kristen K.

Martha was extremely helpful, available when needed, knowledgeable about homes, the local market from both buyers' and sellers' perspectives. Her advice on negotiating, home quality and our search was excellent. We would definitely recommend Martha to friends or colleagues looking for a home.

Eric and Naomi J.

Martha was very knowledgeable and professional throughout our home buying process. My spouse and I were first time home buyers and she was always available and patient with us. She came with us not only to see homes but she was also there for us through home inspection and closing. Even after closing, we heard from her several times to make sure we had what we needed!

Alex and Dana A.

Martha helped us a lot through our home buying process. She went above what I was expecting by coming to walk-throughs, the closing, even bringing her own blue tape. I felt that we had a really good representative throughout the process.

Bill and Rosa F.

Martha was such a pleasure to work with in buying our new home. She was quick to respond to our questions and always willing to track down the answers for us. We had just the best buying experience and feel it was due to our agent. I would highly recommend Martha to anyone buying or selling their house.

John and Teresa D.

We LOVE Martha! And we are so thankful to have her as our realtor. From our house hunting journey to closing on our dream home, Martha exceeded our expectations, impressing not only my wife and me, but also the lender we were working with. Not only was Martha sweet and personable, she was also very knowledgeable about the industry and provided us with suggestions that won us our dream home. We cannot thank Martha enough for all of her help. You'll be glad to have her as your agent!

Bo and Maria L.

Martha was punctual, sharp, and covered every detail of our transaction. She was a pleasure to work with!

Erik and Jennifer S.

She is absolutely awesome. She was recommended to us by a friend and saved us! She is so incredibly professional and shows a true dedication to ethics and transparency. She made the home buying experience very enjoyable and was able to establish trust very quickly. She is by far the best real estate agent we have ever worked with in our 11 years as homeowners. Thank you, Martha!

Mike and Melissa B.

Martha was AMAZING! She helped us not only during the buying process but went above and beyond even after our closing. Even now that we are moved in, I know I can still call her and she would be there to help us. I couldn't recommend her enough!!

Kevin and Leeanne A.

Martha was great to work with. She was always available and helped us move quickly on our purchase, including opening up the house several times for inspections and contractors.

Eduardo and Cristina B.

Martha is awesome! Absolutely would recommend her. She was friendly, punctual, returned calls and e-mail as soon as she was able. We especially appreciated her help throughout the whole process which made it less stressful for us. This was not an easy quick sell/buy property but Martha always encouraged us to be patient and wait and everything would fall into place. And it Did! Thank you for being the best agent anyone could ever have.

Blaine and Delva Z.

Martha is very knowledgeable about the process. Her mannerism is very personable while maintaining professionalism. We appreciated how proactive she was in advancing our home search and purchase.

Jerald and Veronica C.

Martha was patient, flexible and extremely knowledgeable. Martha made the process as painless as possible for a high maintenance couple's relocation from KY. I can't thank Martha enough and would recommend her to anyone entering the home buying process.

Mark and Cara R.

My wife and I worked with Martha and her team from December 2015 through March 2016 when we decided to relocate from San Diego to Austin. As anyone could imagine, moving a family with two young children halfway across the country is no easy endeavor. From day one when we met Martha for our first home tour, we knew we were in good hands in Austin.

We made several trips out to Austin between December and March to look at homes. Martha and her team always did all the legwork up front to ensure that our short time in Austin during these trips would be well spent. We typically spent two days on each trip touring areas and homes on a well-orchestrated schedule – morning and afternoon sessions each day. These tours, along with Martha’s insights, were invaluable. This in one area, of many, in which Martha shines. Martha is not the type of agent that is going to stand behind you, nod her head, and agree with everything you say just to make the sale. Martha has a keen eye and knows what to look for as she tours a home. On more than one occasion we found Martha pointing out areas of concern, and/or deficiencies in homes, that we would have otherwise missed.

It was during one of these trips that we ended up finding our “dream home”. The home was priced out of our range, and to be frank, we thought we did not have a realistic chance of getting an offer accepted – especially with the contingency we needed on the sale of our home in San Diego. This is, again, another area where Martha shined. She worked with the seller and negotiated the price down to a point that we could afford. After the offer was accepted, Martha kept in constant contact with us the seller, and all parties involved to ensure that everything moved along according to schedule – an aggressive schedule that involved us closing the sale of our home in San Diego on one day, and closing our purchase in Austin the very next day. We firmly believe that without Martha, this would not have been possible.

We cannot state emphatically enough how incredibly enjoyable it was to work with Martha throughout this entire process. We would not hesitate to recommend Martha to any friends or family looking to buy or sell real estate in the Austin area. In fact, we ALREADY HAVE recommended Martha to friends of ours, who are currently working with her to find their new home in Austin.

Mike and Melissa S.

We knew when we first started looking for houses that Martha was the right fit for our family, what we didn't know is how she would work day in and day out to make sure that we found the perfect home. We had a strict deadline, we needed a home before our second daughter arrived and she was able to make it happen even in this crazy Austin market. Martha always sent us the most up to date listings and even came up with some creative ways to find homes that weren't listed on the market yet. Even after our offer was made and accepted Martha would follow up on things we as first time home buyers had not yet thought of. We highly suggest Martha to anyone looking to purchase in or around the Austin area, you really have to have a realtor as dedicated as she is to stand a chance of finding and purchasing a home. The way she fought for our family to finally be homeowners was outstanding and really set our experience apart from our cousins who are currently house hunting in another city and have a realtor not looking out for their best interest. Her knowledge and advice were the factors that got us into a house and we will be forever grateful.

Ben and Charlene T.

I have been thinking about writing this review for a while because I don't think anything I can write will express how much gratitude and respect we have for Martha! She went above and beyond being there for us in answering questions at any time and giving her expertise through every step of this process. I am positive we would not have our house without her and I cannot tell her thank you enough. We will recommend Martha to every single one of our friends/family. If you are lucky enough to work with Martha you will understand what an incredible friend and realtor you will find!

Sam and Amanda K.

Martha was available at all times of the day to answer questions and deal with my inexperience. She was kind, knowledgeable and patient. She gave me honest feedback and was respectful of my decisions even when they were different from her recommendations. In terms of a great relationship and outstanding service, I would recommend her to anyone.

Daniel and Tania T.

Martha was great. We were in sync both before and after going under contract about the urgency required given the current market conditions here in Austin. She was very responsive and knowledgeable throughout the whole process and was very helpful to get a first-time buyer through all this.

Victor P.

We received excellent services from Martha. I would recommend her to my friends anytime!

Y. Kim

Martha was very helpful with our house purchase. She was very calm and did not try to up-sell any of the houses that we saw. In fact, on one of the houses that we liked very much, she pointed out some errors that may not be visible to the naked eye but were absolute deal breakers for us. She was very thorough with the whole process and would constantly follow up with us in case we had any questions. Would gladly recommend her to my friends and acquaintances.

Srikrishna R.

Martha goes above and beyond the call of work related duties. She has a work ethic that surpasses any expectations you may have. Working with Martha was like working with a personal friend. She is there 24/7 resolving any issues that come up. We could not have gotten through this without her. She has many years of experience and knowledge that greatly help when you're faced with difficult issues. Martha was a true blessing for us.

Nora M.

I recommend Martha to all my friends and colleagues in the Austin area. Martha is efficient, thorough, timely and highly skilled in communications as well as very ethical in all aspect of business. During the five months we worked together looking at properties in the Austin area we always knew about new properties that were newly listed and we reviewed the property before going to look at them so there were limited surprises and we maximized our available time to priority properties. You will be making a big mistake if you choose not to use Martha.

Mark and Marsha L.

Martha did an excellent job with our home sale and new home purchase. She came over to our house and spent three hours helping us stage it. When it came time to buy a new home, Martha spent countless hours helping to guide us to a home we would love. I highly recommend her!

Chris and Jennifer H.

Martha Olmos is extraordinary! We were on a serious time crunch to find something we needed and hopefully liked. She not only helped us find the right house but she also connected us to a lender that was able to close our house in no time at all!! I cannot express how much gratitude we have for Martha. She really, really listens and made herself completely available to any questions we had. She even helped to save us money with our homeowners insurance and informed us about the tax breaks and what we needed to do to be sure we got everything correct. We never doubted her honesty and so very much appreciated her candor. Not one single experience with her was an unpleasant surprise. If we have to do this all over again, Martha will be the one we turn to once again and again and again!!!

Tom and Michelle W.

Martha was awesome and was available to answer any of my questions along the way. She gave great advice when requested and represented our interests well throughout every step of the process. I will definitely request her in the future the next time we need an agent.

George W.

Martha was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process of purchasing this house. As a first time home buyer, she gave me lots of advice and helped me through all the steps.

Martha was on top of everything throughout the whole process. I had originally started working with a lender who was having trouble closing. She worked with the lender and the seller to keep the process moving forward, eventually helping me choose a new lender who was able to close very quickly. Throughout this long and difficult closing, I wasn't worried because I knew Martha was doing everything possible to help me close.

I will definitely want to work with Martha again on my next purchase.

Justin C.

Martha is extremely on point. Always available and helps with every detail of the process to move things forward.

Mason A.

Martha was so helpful! Martha has a very kind presence and even helped out with our two young boys so we could take a good look at the homes we were touring. Martha's advice was key in helping us close the deal on the right house for us.

Rebecca and Gabriel N.

Martha was great and very helpful every step of the way.

Seth and Kaci J.

Martha was a pleasure to work with! She made herself available to us whenever we needed her. I would highly recommend her to anyone buying a home!

Luke and Lindsey B.

Martha was wonderful. Not only would I recommend her, I already have!

Chris M.

Martha's knowledge and dedication is exemplary. She is very calm and resourceful. You cannot ask for a better agent.

Ali J.

I can't imagine buying another house without Martha on my team. She went above and beyond to make sure that I got the outcome I was looking for. She gave me great advice and is extremely knowledgeable. I recommend her without reservation.
